    PowerClean 125

    Time to Test Chins again, Black band, 7,7,6 SO more reps,

    I also changed to 2.5# jumps on the Bench. I had been struggling for a while. Thought I would make smaller jumps before I failed and took a reset.

    Week 9

    6/27/2022
    Squat 275
    Press 125
    Deadlift 320

    6/29/2022
    Squat 280
    Bench 195
    PowerClean 130

    7/1/2022
    Squat 285
    Press 127.5
    Deadlift 325

    Tried the Lying Tricep Extensions, Assistance work for the Bench, 45# for 12 reps... Way to light.
    Little energy left to burn before the weekend, so I did some Chins, Black band, 8,7,5reps

    Good news is, This is the first time I have ever squatted over 275 or deadlifted 315. A little work on the upper body and I'll be the strongest I've ever been.

    Squats are getting horrible, Like it's hard to get motivated between sets. Trying to push to 315 before a reset.

    Squat 305
    Press 132.5
    Deadlift 335

    7/13/2022
    Squat 310 Failed, 1st set, 3rd rep. Time for that reset

    7/15/2022
    Squat 280
    Press 135
    Deadlift 340
    Chins Black Band, 8,6, 10 negatives
    Dips 30# assistance 10*3
    Clean and Jerks---- 145*3, 150*1, 155*1, 160*1, 165*1

    A few friends showed up when I was putting up plates after deadlift... So I stuck around and did some non-program work while running my mouth. Figured I had the weekend off and the Squat just reset. Progress wouldn't be harmed.

    My thoughts moving forward is. I think I failed that squat because the deadlifts are taxing me, and the squat and deadlift are so close in weight. So I reset the squat. Hopefully the Deadlift will keep building. Then when I get up to where the Squat failed, I'll heavy squat every other day, opposite the deadlift. I know the book says Heavy on Monday and Friday, Light Squat day Wednesday... This way will be 10# a month slower if everything is perfect, and hopefully less taxing.

    Missed Fridays Workout, Started feeling a little rough Tuesday, Went ahead and did the Workout Wednesday, Don't know what I had, Probably the sickest I had ever been. My next few workouts will be dialed back, I just can't get any air. But I'll do the best I can to keep from losing progress.

    Week 13

    7/25/2022
    Squat 290*5 1 Set
    Bench 205 2*3
    Deadlift 275*5

    That's all I could handle today. I did light Deadlifts today, because I kept falling down Saturday just trying to get up and go to the kitchen or bathroom, Wasn't about to try a PowerClean. Not great, but not bad considering there had been talks of a hospital trip on Saturday.

    7/27/2022
    Squat 275
    Press 140
    Deadlift 315

    Full Sets, a bit light on the deadlift, 315 should have been my top warm-up. Couple more days and I'll be full swing again.

    7/29/2022
    Squat 280
    Press 145*2*8
    Bench 205
    PowerClean 135
    Dips 20# of assistance 10*3

    Tried out some Heavy Doubles today, to see if I wanted to add those in between the days of heavy 3 sets of 5. I think I'll just add in a light day at 5*5. Same for Bench. So both pressing movements each workout coming soon. Looking back on this, it was a good call for the bench. Made the heavy days much better. I think it helped the press as well, but the Heavy days will soon be 15 reps however I can get them. If you see that change and wonder what is happening.

    starting strength coach development program
    Week 17

    8/22/2022
    Squat 310*5*3
    Press 122.5*5*5
    Bench 217.5---5,5,4,3
    PowerClean 160*3*5

    8/24/2022
    Squat 255*5*5
    Press 155---4,4,4,3
    Bench 182.5*5*5
    Deadlift 375

    8/26/2022
    Squat 315*5*3
    Press 125*5*5
    Bench 220---5,5,5 Test Max 235*1 250*1
    PowerClean 165*3*5

    Squat Goal fell this week at 315, Headed for 365.
    Press Goal is down as well at 155, hoping for 185 next even if it is moving slow.

    First time I ran the program, I quit before hitting a Squat of 275 and a Deadlift of 315... soon I will hit the bench goal. I will be the strongest I have ever been in all movements.

    With these goals being met, Maybe by Thanksgiving I can be crowding 250# Bodyweight with a 185# Press, 250# Bench, 365# Squat, and a 455# Deadlift... I've decided not to look at the scale, as long as I keep leaning out.... who gives a shit.
